If I have a DV cam and i want to output it to VHS/SVHS, which video capture card i should get? Can Studio DV 8 be able to do that?

If you want to copy your DV tape to VHS/SVHS then what you need is a VCR (or better a VCE with SVHS capability). Pretty simple.

If you want to edit your DV movie first, then output to VHS/SVHS tape then you can buy Studio DV 8 to do this job. It comes with capture card and software.

After editing, you need to select MAKE MOVIE. Make sure you connect your VCR to the DV camcorder. Hit RECORD on the VCR, then in MAKE MOVIE, hit PLAY. The computer will play the edited movie while the VCD records it on tape.
